Overview

These screenplays examine the moral depths and horror that extreme income inequality and deprivation would drive people to explore. Horror fills the lives of those forced into a corner by systematic, destructive greed. These are the people who have to decide which child can eat dinner tonight and which child has to wait until breakfast tomorrow. They sell everything they own until there is nothing remaining to sell but themselves. Open this book, if you dare, visualize the degradation that unrestrained and unregulated capitalism visit upon 99% of the population. Feel something, even if it is to be driven insane, and know that you too are human and that what happens to the characters in these stories can also happen to you.Includes the short screenplays, "I Disappear, Alone With You Last Night, Deprivation: The Apocalypse," and the bonus reprint of "Deep in the Woods" [The Dark Fantastic: 12 Short Screenplays, McQueen Press, 2013], plus storyboards.
